Description
Celo is transitioning from a standalone EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain to a Layer 2 powered by the OP Stack. After an eight-month evaluation, the OP Stack was chosen for Celo's migration due to its quick deployment capabilities, strong alignment with Ethereum's ecosystem, and support for positive-sum growth.

EthicHub

EthicHub is a peer-to-peer lending platform that aims to connect small and unbanked farmers in developing countries with international investors. It facilitates the provision of microloans that are intended to improve both yields and income.

Lending

Divvi

Divvi enables protocols to define specific metrics they wish to incentivize, allowing builders to earn rewards based on the incremental value they generate on-chain. This system ensures that those who contribute to the ecosystem's growth are fairly compensated, fostering innovation and broader adoption of decentralized technologies.

SocialFi

Talent Protocol

Talent Protocol leverages onchain technology to create visible, verifiable professional reputations, simplifying talent discovery and candidate assessment. Through aggregating data across platforms, it reduces hiring friction and opens avenues for innovative applications like under-collateralized lending. The $TALENT token supports the ecosystem by incentivizing users to maintain verified data, usable for visibility boosts, onchain services, and earning rewards. With 600 million tokens, Talent Protocol is backed by $3.5 million from investors like Protocol Labs and GSR.

Onchain Tooling

Self Protocol

Self Protocol is an identity verification system that leverages zero-knowledge proofs to enable Sybil-resistant token distributions and user authentication without compromising personal data. By validating user attributes such as age or location through passport verification, Self Protocol ensures that decentralized applications can authenticate real users while maintaining privacy.

Onchain Tooling

KotaniPay

Kotani Pay is a Kenyan-based fintech startup that provides a technology stack enabling seamless integration between blockchain protocols and local payment channels in Africa. It facilitates cross-border remittances and financial inclusion by allowing users to convert stablecoins to local currencies and access funds via mobile money, even without internet connectivity.

Onchain Tooling

Uniswap

Uniswap is a DEX protocol for ERC-20 tokens that features concentrated liquidity and community-driven governance through its UNI token. With a total supply capped at 1 billion tokens, UNI holders influence protocol changes and earn rewards through governance participation and liquidity provision. Initial funding included a grant from the Ethereum Foundation and a seed round led by Paradigm, which supported its development and growth in the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.
